Dear MAGA: 20250904 ✾ Thank God ± Theistic Evolution ∈ Thursday Open Topic


This man, making Christmas calls from the White House, believes the world is a sphere. And he has even flown around it! So has our beautiful FLOTUS, who happens to be his wife!

Truth and common sense must be valued by us, as individuals, in order to lastingly disempower the authoritarian fake news media. This includes the perniciously smarmy science media, which never answers for its errors and lies. I believe that the media has been responsible not only for leftist pathologies like scientism, medical fascism, and radical gender ideology, but also for reactionary movements like modern flat Earth, rejection of all medicine, and Biblical geological literalism.


Just as Wheatie’s Stormwatch Monday Open Thread was created as a place for people to openly express their thoughts and opinions, so, too, is this Thank God Thursday Open Thread, where honest but civil discussion of all topics is encouraged. This thread is also to be known as Theistic Evolution Thursdays, due to the author’s expected “pontification” about his scientific, religious, and political opinions. You are welcome to pontificate back! Free speech matters!

Please label all AI-generated content as being such, unless it is patently obvious (e.g., humorous AI images). It is important that we as individuals not begin to pretend that socially derived artificial intelligence is actually our own, as this form of stealthy social information averaging and feedback would be one more pretense and deception between people, in service of stupid Marxist socialism, and of those who wish to substitute their communally protected lies for actual truth.

The source of alleged truth matters, not for the truth itself, but for validation.

And yes, it’s THURSDAY…again.

And that’s it. We’re done stealing from Wheatie.

OK – maybe her rules need to be posted.

  • No food fights.
  • No running with scissors.
  • If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.

Other rules may be derivable from these, and that conjecture is left for discussion.


If there is nothing beyond the “W” below, then this is a placeholder. For health reasons, I can’t always post a timely opinion before each Thursday, but I will try. Otherwise, you have this placeholder post, where YOU provide the content. Enjoy!

Dear KMAG: 20250901 Trump Won Three Times ❀ Open Topic


Joe Biden never won. This is our Real President – 45, 46, 47.

AND our beautiful REALFLOTUS.


This Stormwatch Monday Open Thread remains open – VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KAG/KMAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).

And yes, it’s Monday…again.

But we WILL get through it!

We will always remember Wheatie,

Pray for Trump,

Yet have fun,

and HOLD ON when things get crazy!


We will follow the RULES of civility that Wheatie left for us:

Wheatie’s Rules:

  1. No food fights.
  2. No running with scissors.
  3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.

And while we engage in vigorous free speech, we will remember Wheatie’s advice on civility, non-violence, and site unity:

“We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”

“Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”

If this site gets shut down, please remember various ways to get back in touch with the rest of the gang:

Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces.

Daily outrage and epic phuckery abound.

We can give in to despair…or we can be defiant and fight back in any way that we can.

Joe Biden didn’t win.

And we will keep saying Joe Biden didn’t win until we get His Fraudulency out of our White House.


Wolfie’s Wheatie’s Word of the Week:

tephrochronology

noun

  • dating of volcanic eruptions by studying layers of ash
  • Wheatie’s way of saying something to Steve?
  • seriously – the word just came up pseudo-randomly!

Used in a sentence

I decided to overwrite the word placeholder with the word tephrochronology, which seems a bit symbolic if not illustrative of the idea.

Discussed in a video about Idaho


MUSIC!

And this is NOT AI music!


THE STUFF

The AI voice is annoying, but GET OUT YOUR GLOBE!!!

I’m not Steve, but at what seems like Wheatie’s urging, I’ll try to keep some science going in his absence.

Just sayin’!

And remember…….

Until victory, have faith!

And trust the big plan, too!

And as always….

THE STUFF

Hopefully Steve is at least lurking occasionally at this point, and if so, perhaps he’ll enjoy this shorter video by Erica d’Anthropologie, which I found intriguing for several reasons, including just a good look at how science works when it’s actually working.

I’ve learned a lot from this gal.

Not a placeholder. A short selection of tidbits.

(1) AI Sydney Sweeney, bad AI political humor, and bad AI dialogue. UGH. And yet, weirdly watchable, like figures in a small-town wax museum.


(2) This is funnier, and definitely NOT AI.


(3) Is this wasp video AI? Your opinions welcome.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-RMDTFO6iZ0

Not sure why you have to watch it on YouTube.


(4) Science LYAHF video turns out to be good for all the wrong reasons!

This LYAHF (Let’s You And Her Fight) physics attack video, in which a rather malicious woke establishment science dude obsessively goes after Sabine Hossenfelder and Eric Weinstein, by interviewing six scientists whose fields she has snubbed, turns out to have some amazing explanations of current aspirations in physics by his less malicious and very serious guests.

Watch the attacker act like a typical MSM journalist, pushing his guests to try to get them to say what he wants them to say – that Sabine is a “fraud” and a crackpot.

Nonetheless, very worth the watch to gain an understanding of current progress in string theory, particle physics, etc.


(5) Want to know more about ancient Egyptian?

It takes a while for the story to get there, but it’s worth it.


Have a great weekend!

More random interesting things.

(1) Among what are clearly synthetic bands (such as J-pop, K-pop, and USA-pop), this “Siberian Psy-Op” is perhaps even more enigmatic than “Babymetal”!

At least these Siberian chicks aren’t AI – right?


(2) Anastasia, the [probably AI] Chip Chick, talks about Japan’s big integrated circuit plans with IBM.


(3) Flat Earth Disproven (Once Again) By Internet Nerds You May Know!

You may have already seen this, but in case you didn’t, check it out.


(4) BIG BUGS!

Not too gross, some beautiful. Check them out! (Yeah, the cover is total phony gross-out clickbait – don’t worry!)


(5) Fox Outnumbered talks about Sydney Sweeney!

What do you think of Kennedy’s glasses? NOT A FAN, HERE!!!

A really nice version of a song that I enjoyed back in the day.


THE STUFF

This is a painful confrontation of an Irish PalPal with facts about Islam. I would say “enjoy”, except it’s literally painful to watch.

And then there is this comment on the page…..

I’m a Christian born in a Muslim country. My family migrated to the west when I was 9 years old, we did not want leave but we knew ultimately that one day we would be either killed or kicked out so we decided to leave before that happened. A few years later, the Islamic terrorists started bombing churches. They kidnapped my mums cousin who is a priest. Tortured him for days, pulled his teeth out and eventually by GODs grace he was let go. I met a man whose son was killed in a church that was attacked by Islamic terrorists. This man lives with so much pain every day. He remembers his son every single day. His wife and daughter were almost killed too but his son heroically covered them with his body when the terrorists tried to kill them. Thank GOD they were miraculously spared. My mums brother who’s an engineer was kidnapped twice by terrorists and asked for a large sum of money for his life. Mum was living a nightmare. She couldn’t sleep or eat. I was young and didn’t understand what had happened. Later on I was told. You know the horror and terror we live under everyday just because we are Christian trying to survive in a Muslim country. This young lady doesn’t understand anything. Islam is a problem. It’s a death cult. Please read the quran, the life of Muhammad and the hadiths. They are shocking to say the least. I pray and hope that people like her wake up. Because before you know it, you will find yourself living under Sharia law. Thank you for bringing this to people’s attention. I pray they listen.

Yeah, I pray, too.

Just sayin’!

And remember…….

Until victory, have faith!

And trust the big plan, too!

Obama’s mentor’s mentor! Do things make sense now?


(3) OH NOES – Ancient Humanoids Just Got Even More Complicated!

(WARNING – 41 min EXTREME geek-out scientific paper reviews!)

Is it a mess? YES – and real science admits that it’s a mess, and the mess is evolving, too! But things ARE getting sorted out.

Frankly, I wish we would have had these kinds of science discussions online when I was in school, instead of sending letters by pony express, or using scrolls and clay tablets!


(4) I love this song – in case you haven’t seen it.

AI humor had me cheering, and AI country had me tapping my foot. Not gonna lie!
